Ok I cannot launch X session from tty7, default console, as the normal
user. But if I change the allowed_users value in
/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config file from "console" to "anybody", I can
launch it from tty7.

the only way I can launch a separate X session is to first log into
another console first and then launch X. This works without any issue.
I am guessing the default tty is signed into as root. Can someone confirm this?
